Clear Spring lifts 'boil water' advisory

July 26, 1998

CLEAR SPRING - Customers of the Clear Spring water system no longer have to boil their water, according to the Maryland Department of the Environment, which found the water safe and free of contaminants.

The "boil water" advisory was lifted Friday, five days after a lightning struck the Clear Spring Reservoir during Monday evening's storm, knocking out power and the chlorinator briefly.
